Our Team
Inês Petiz
Co-Founder and CEO of Synergy Hub and Mentor for Entrepreneurs
Believes life is too short not to pursue what we’re passionate about. Fights for a world with more people with purpose, who roll up their sleeves and make things happen. Sees developing a strong and aligned mindset as the path to success.
Helder Vilares
Co-Founder and Video Studio Manager of Synergy Hub
Refuses to accept norms just because “it’s always been that way.” Believes in altruistic sharing, without fear and without filters. Sees empathy as the foundation of all genuine relationships.
Vanessa Silva
Startup Growth Specialist
Optimistic by nature, loves adventures, traveling, and laughing out loud. Speaks incredibly loudly and knows it, but can’t control it. Values relationships, teamwork, and mutual support.
Sandra Gomes
The “mum” of Synergy, who feeds us and takes care of us
Before Synergy was Synergy… there was Sandra! She met Helder and Inês in 2011 at their beach bar, and they’ve been inseparable ever since. She takes care of everyone (really!), whether with one of her homemade cakes or a hug that says more than a thousand words.
Fernando Fraga
Founder and CEO of F2Group Mentor
Combines good humor with his extraordinary business knowledge and has the largest networking network we’ve ever seen. Always ready to help in the growth of entrepreneurs and businesses.
